Here's a good comparison between a stock chain and an LS2
Looks like a lot of difference to me.

really the big difference is going to be in the grade of the steel. the thickness is the same throughout, as it appears to be. they look to be basically the same exact design, just the ls2 might be a weee bit beefier. steel specs would be good hard baseline data though
